Remember the start of the lockdown the first to complain about tourists were the Cornish politicians. Something about the public resources being over stretched especially the NHS. Of course living in the SE we haven't a clue what their on about after all allowing in thousands of people each year is a good thing and doesn't impact on public services in the slightest. I had planned a holiday to Cornwall not now though when things get back to normal the same politicians will be moaning about the impact on the local economy. Edited by Badger11 (01 Sep 2020 8.11am)

Edited by Badger11 (01 Sep 2020 8.11am) The authorities here were concerned at the start of the pandemic that an unanticipated heavy surge of visitors, particularly second homeowners trying to escape the cities, would overwhelm the limited health resources, which would not be in anyone's best interests. We have moved on from there now and there have been a lot of tourists here in the past weeks. The difference this year being primarily that they are all UK based, whereas in normal years they arrive from all over the world.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

What would the reaction be if asylum seekers started to arrive in their droves?

Isn’t there plenty of our own homeless he could welcome? No way. We need to import bigger problems right now. We are a land of the streets paved with gold. Our home grown problems should be ignored and whatever is trending on social media needs to be done right now, until something else trends. I see no future issues arising from this. Can anyone else?

We need to set up some detention centres in Truro. Those who promote unpopular principles for others must live those principles in the here and now. Edited by Stirlingsays (03 Sep 2020 4.18pm)

Edited by Stirlingsays (03 Sep 2020 4.18pm) Can I be your co-driver? That is something I would like to witness. At least we know one resident who would welcome them, in fact, he has some accommodation they can have
